A walk through the various marts of trade

which gives little ground for complaint on the

The South African Ouarra.

It is stated that the quagga, the beauti- ful wild striped ass of South Africa, has suddenly ceased to exist. The bootmakers of London and New York wanted his skin for particular kind of sportsmanis boot, and he consequently passed away out of zoology. There may be a few left on the highest and widest plateaus, but the BOers, tempted by the high prices, have extirpated the herds which only ten years ago existed in South Africa. That will be the fate of the elephant, too, and possibly of the crocodile. It takes whole provinces to supply ivory for one advertis ing firm in Oxford street, the price is four fold the price of a quarter of a century ago, and the beasts are hunted with q per sistency which in no long time must be fatal.
 The Indian government Is making ef- forts to protect the Asiatic breed, but they will all be futile. Animals which when dead are exceedingly valuable contract a habit of dying, and laws establishing close time are powerless when it is worth while to run the risk of breaking them. The crOcodile's skin is used by smokers and purseInakers, and so he will disap- pear. Whatever Europe wants Europe will have; and if the fashion of turning tigers claws into brooches had developed and spread to America, tigers would have perished- There will soon not be bird Of paradise on earth, and the ostrich has only been saved by private breeders. Man will not wait for the cooling of the world to consume everything in it. from teak trees to humming birds, and cent ury or two hence will find himself per plexed by planet in which there is nOth- ing except what he makes. He is poor sort of standardization Spectator.

Too many people labor under the im- pression that the newspapers should be par excellence whether they gre patron ized or not. They expect to see the pa per crowded with news, yet they will net contribute farthing for its sup port. Very often the remark is made: Il will give you an sd. or subscription to help you along" Newspaper men ire not objects of charity aud do not i-bor as such. They give more than the val ue received for all the business in the way of advertising they get. Those men who take this charity view of the matter are unmindful of the fact that the advertising columns of the [ ws- paper are the indeI of the prosperity of their town or city. A live paper, sSell filled with business advertisements. is indicative of the welfare of the town. and is the best representation that can be made. They attract home-seekers to locality that would otherwise never .SopituAActo huO hIc Ill OA land investments are attracted by them. Of course all the investments help the newspaper man, just as sale of gosds aids the business man, but at the same time it benefits the one who sdveriises 10 8 much greater extent than it does the printer, Any town can have @ good paper if it receives proper support. Just so with & business establishment. Advertising has done mere to enrich men than anything else in the world.

The Court Martial System.

Tt is startling fact, shown up by re liable figures" said an army officer yes terday, that 50 per cent. of the soldiers in department were, during the past year. tried by court martial Most of them, of course, were tried for petty offenses. such as drunkenness, being of duty without leave of absence. This is pitiful showing. and at the same time it's truth cannot be dis. puted- It proves that there is something radically wrong with the present system of court martial As the thing is now. if soldier goes of or becomes intoKicated. he is immediately tried by court martial md sentenced to a term in the ruari house. That relieves him from duty, and throws the work on the men who behave themselves This discourages the good soldiers and helps the bad ones.
 The fact is there ought 10 be a fixed code of laws, rigidly enforced, with cer- tain punishment for each crime-sorne- thing similar to the code which obtains fin the police court. Then a soldier who dis obeys these laws would know just what punishment to expect. Under the present system soldier, tried by our court mar Gal, might get a sentence more severe or more lenient than soldier who commits the very same crime, but Is tried by diff ferent court martial board. In my opinion there ought to be less guard house sen- tence and more fining done Let a soldier understand that an infringement of the law is going to cost him the half or whole of his months pay, and he will be pretty apt to keep straight. For that reason a fixed code of laws and fines ought to be determined upon--Omaha Bee.

MUCH to the surprise of the people oi Prescott. the Tonto Apsches are to bt put on the Verde reservation. This move We have always favored, ss We be- heve 1t viii productive of good, and. so far as ge can learn, there are DO valid reasons why YavapHi should not bear portion of this Indian burden in com mon with her sister counties. In doing so. however, let her people adopt the true policy ot Indian management. Let them respect the rights of the Indians and then compel the Indians to respect theirs. The Verde reservation is for the Indians. and white interlopers should not be tolerated thereon; but off tine reservation tho Indian has no rights, pass or no pass. and should be killed as rebgiously es are msd dogs. If this be done by the people of Yavapsi, the whole people of tho territory will stand to their support.
